Import stands from dxf file

Feature Purpose:

This feature allows administrators to import DXF files containing stand layouts onto the Hall image, automatically creating interactive stand shapes with exhibitors tagged based on matching stand numbers.

Working with this Feature:

• Uploading DXF Files:

  • Users can upload a DXF file by clicking the "Upload Stands DXF file" button within the Floorplan Admin panel.

  • Upon successful upload, stand shapes and names from the DXF file will be displayed on the Hall image and listed in the "All Stands" section on the right side of the screen.

• Automatic Exhibitor Tagging:

  • The system automatically tags exhibitors to stand shapes if the stand number in the DXF file matches exactly the exhibitor's stand number.

Hall and stand names need to be unique!

• DXF and Image Manipulation:

  • Improved compatibility with the DXF format ensures accurate import and display.

  • Users can drag and resize both the imported DXF file and the background Hall image with precision.

• Shape Editing:

  • A Rectangle/Polygon editor is available for creating and modifying stand shapes.

  • Users can edit shapes imported from DXF files, including resizing, reshaping, and repositioning.

  • All added stand from the dxf file can be manually edited.

• Exhibitor Tag Management:

  • Users can manually tag or untag exhibitors to stands on the exhibitor profile.

Troubleshooting:

• DXF File Compatibility:

  • Ensure the DXF file is in a compatible format. If issues arise, try saving the DXF file in a different version or format.

• Stand Number Matching:

  • Verify that the stand numbers in the DXF file exactly match the exhibitor stand numbers in the system. Mismatches will prevent automatic tagging.

• Image Alignment:

  • If the DXF file and Hall image are misaligned after import, use the drag and resize tools to adjust their positions.

• Shape Editing Issues:

  • If shapes cannot be edited or created, check for browser compatibility issues or ensure the user has the necessary permissions.

• Exhibitor Tagging Problems:

  • If exhibitors are not tagging properly, verify that the stand numbers are identical on exhibitor profile and DXF file.

  • Check for duplicated on the stand numbers.
